The main objective of my ITS 102 section in Spring 2008 (The Cost of Energy) was to develop in students skills to conduct literature search, organize data, communicate and present results.  Students were given focused topics, and my role is more of a coach in guiding them through the learning process which culminates in a presentation recorded in video podcast.

Imin has taught first-year seminars on the following topics:

Spring 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007

Marvels and Perils of Engineering Systems Design and Their Societal Impact

Spring 2008, 2009
